One might wonder how it is possible that Eurythmy, which is so gentle, can be effective in harmonizing that part of the body that is hardest of us: the Teeth. The experience has shown that doing Eurythmy for the Teeth is very effective in all cases.
大家可能会觉得奇怪,优律思美那么柔和的一项活动,怎么可能对我们身上最坚硬的部分--牙齿起到矫治作用。然而经验表明,为牙齿而做的优律思美确实有效,所有案例都如此。
The results - as laid down in plaster casts, photos and x-rays – speak for themselves. The results in practically all areas, such as overbite, progeny, deep bite, cross bite, open bite, crowding and all other anomalies of the teeth, are astonishing. With this method there is no need to pull teeth in cases of overcrowding. Also, braces can be avoided.
石膏拓模、照片还有X光结果都可以有力地证明其疗效。实际上所有的牙齿异常,例如覆咬合、地包天、咬合过深、后牙反咬合、无法咬合、牙列拥挤和所有其他牙齿异常,矫治结果都很惊人。用优律思美方法,牙列拥挤都无需拔牙,也可以免除牙箍矫正。
It should be clear that there are also interesting positive financial aspects.
More important, with this approach: there is no recidivism,
which occurs often with the use of mechanical means.
而且要明确指出优律思美方法很有趣的一点,它更加经济。
更重要的是,采用医疗器械途径矫治,常会有复发、需要反复治疗
而优律思美不会出现这一情况。
First we may want to acknowledge that any Eurythmy has healing qualities, which can be experienced , when observing performances by accomplished Eurythmists.
首先,我们也许要认识到,任何形式的优律思美都有疗愈品质。观看技艺高超的优律思美舞者表演时,我们可以直接体验到这一点。
Secondly, Eurythmy Therapy has been successfully used in Anthroposophical clinics and private settings. As can be seen from the contents of “The Healing Power of Eurythmy”, the areas where Eurythmy Therpy can be used are too numerous to name. Children in Waldorf schools who have the privilege of having Eurythmy lessons with the whole class may count on improvements in their health for years to come.
其次,优律思美疗法已经成功运用在人智学诊所和私人诊所。读者可以在《优律思美的疗愈力量》一书中读到很多优律思美疗法的运用,其运用领域不胜枚举。华德福学校的孩子非常幸运,他们有机会与全班同学一起上优律思美课程,这给他们的健康带来的促进作用在其后数年都可以看到。
牙齿异常的优律思美矫治(二)
Since 1989 Eurythmy for the Teeth has been developed and practiced in many countries. We only had two basic indications from Rudolf Steiner of how to effect the lower as well as the upper jaw. The real breakthrough in this area came when a Therapeutic Eurythmist (Mareike Kaiser) and an Anthroposophical Dentist (Dr. Claus Haupt) in cooperation with a goldsmith with clairvoyant capacities started to work together. And now we have the possibility to work with any problem of the teeth.
牙齿矫治优律思美自1989年开始发展,并在许多国家开始运用。在此之前,关于这个领域,鲁道夫·施泰纳只给了两段非常基础的关于如何影响下颌还有上颌的指引。真正的突破始自于三个人的合作,他们是治疗性优律思美师Mareike Kaiser、人智学牙医Dr. Claus Haupt、和一名有透视能力的金匠。到如今,我们已经可以将之运用在各种牙齿问题上了。
We find in the book by Claus Haupt: “The Human Teeth from a Spiritual Scientific Point of View” statements by Rudolf Steiner where he calls
the Teeth the sum total of all World Mysteries.
在Claus Haupt写的书中,我们会读到鲁道夫·施泰纳给出的一段文字:“精神科学角度所看到的人类牙齿”,这段话中,他说,
牙齿,集所有世界之迷于一身
How can the hardest mineral part in us be effected by something like Eurythmy that is so gentle? The answer to this question lies in the fact that Eurythmy works with a Life Energy Force, from now on being called t1he Etheric.
像优律思美如此柔和的活动,是如何作用于我们身上最坚硬的矿物部分的呢?答案蕴含在一个事实之中,那就是:优律思美是作用在生命能量力量之上的,这股力量我们叫它以太力。
In artistic performances this life element may flow out to and be visible to the audience. When working with the teeth one needs to work with the etheric field around the teeth in relation to the health giving qualities of the etheric in the whole body. Yet, instead of just general applications, the healing energy can be directed to specific areas where anomalies occur, such as overbite, progeny, open bite, deep bite, crowding of the teeth and any other anomalies. This is not passively done to the “patient” but needs the ‘clients’ – mostly children but not exclusively – to take up the task to practice the exercises at home. It is, therefore, necessary in case of younger children that also the parents understand what is involved, so they can support the child to do this at least five times a week for some ten minutes a day. After seven weeks there is a pause, in which the healing energy can settle, before – if necessary – to start another sequence of seven weeks. Some anomalies can be overcome in 6 weeks, others may take three years, but always the pauses inserted after seven weeks.
在艺术性的表演中,这股生命元素会流出,流到观众那里让观众看得见。当针对牙齿做工作时,需要跟牙齿周围的以太场域做工作,这个以太场域与整个身体里那股让我们保持健康的以太力有关。但是,我们不是笼统地运用这股力量,而是将疗愈的能量导向特定的异常部位,例如覆咬合、地包天、无法咬合、咬合过深、牙列拥挤或其他异常发生的部位。这个过程,不是让“病人”被动接受治疗,而是让“来访者”--大部分是孩子、但也并非全都是孩子--把这些练习作为任务自己回家练习。正因为如此,如果是小小孩来接受治疗,很有必要让家长了解我们需要与之工作的力量,然后家长才能够协助孩子在家练习,每天大约10分钟,每周最少五次。如果七周之后还要再来一个七周,中间会有一个暂停时段,以让疗愈能量稳定下来。有些牙齿异常六周过后就能解决,而有些需要耗时三年,但不管怎样都需要在每七周之后加入一段暂停的时间。
牙齿异常的优律思美矫治(三)
Any treatment of the teeth has an effect on the whole child. It may help in case of behavior problems, alleviate sleeping problems and work positively on the posture of the whole body. With that comes an increase in self-awareness and self-confidence.
对牙齿的任何治疗都会对孩子的整个人有作用,也许会帮助改善行为问题,也许会缓解睡眠问题,并且对整个身体的姿态都有积极作用,随之而来的是自我觉知力和自信心的提升。
Many of the preliminary exercises help towards a better and deeper breathing and are as such a healing agent for children suffering from asthma, mouth breathing and help the child/ person to relax.
许多基础的练习都能帮助孩子呼吸得更好、更深,所以对有哮喘、张嘴呼吸的孩子来说是很好的疗愈途径,也能帮助孩子/成人更放松。
The author has worked with scores of children to help bring order into the sometimes helter-skelter positions of the teeth. And, remarkably, all this without pulling teeth or using braces. Most important to this approach is that there is no recidivism.
笔者本人已经跟无数的孩子工作过,帮助他们参差不齐的牙齿恢复整齐美观,尤其要说,所有的这些治疗都不需要孩子拔牙或者用牙箍,最重要的是,这种疗法治疗后问题不会复发。
It would not be right to give more details here, as this therapeutic work needs to be done by Therapeutic Eurythmists, who have gone through a four-year training of Eurythmy, a training for Eurythmy Therapy and in addition have the qualifications for this specialized work.
治疗的细节就不宜在此赘述,因为这属于治疗性工作,需要治疗性优律思美师来实施,他们经过四年的优律思美训练,然后是优律思美疗法培训,此外还要有从事这项工作所需的专业资格认证。
As according to Rudolf Steiner “Man reveals in his teeth his or her individual horoscope” we may start to understand that Eurythmy for the Teeth is not just something for the teeth only, but effects most positively the whole child, the whole person. It may be understood that this method works most effectively in children six or seven years old, but I also have seen remarkable results in older people. At one time we could forestall dental surgery in a 16-year old.
鲁道夫·施泰纳说过“一个人的牙齿会揭示给我们他或她的星盘”,据此,我们可能能够开始理解,用于矫正牙齿的优律思美不光是在矫正牙齿,而是积极地影响着孩子的整体、整个人。可以这么说,这个方法在六七岁大的孩子身上作用是最好的,但我也见证了它在年龄稍大一些的人身上显著的效果,有一次我们甚至用此疗法让一个16岁的孩子免于牙科手术。
It may be a well-known fact that people in the Western hemisphere suffer more from overcrowding than so-called ‘primitive’ people. By applying therapeutic eurythmy a deeper breathing is affected. We become more whole again in body and soul.
大家也许都知道,西半球的人比所谓的原住民要更多受牙列拥挤的困扰,但施予治疗性优律思美之后,人的呼吸变得更深了,我们无论在身体还是灵魂层面,都更加完整一体了。
